A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Emily's face suddenly became serious. All the scenes in which her dignity was torn into pieces by him came back to her mind.
Her hatred began to spread in her mind like wildfire.
Although, she pretended to be indifferent at the sight of Jack, she could not help feeling hurt once she thought of the misery he
had subjected her to. She cursed herself for being so gullible.
Rita simply cast a glimpse at Jack and asked,"Your ex-boyfriend?"
Before Rita went abroad, Emily was still dating Jack. Never in a million years did she expect the handsome and lively boy to turn
into such a repulsive and foul man.
Rita believed that whatever happened between them, Emily must have good reasons for breaking up with him. She would stand
up Emily's side without reservation.
"Emily, what are you doing in a maternity hospital?" Jack walked over with a malicious and insidious vibe,"Are you pregnant?"
Emily stared at him with no fear as she answered in a cold voice,"It's none of your business!"
Jack immediately lost his temper and yelled,"Do you have any sense of shame? !"
Emily couldn't care less about Jack's feelings as she smiled ironically and said,"How dare you ask me that, being the shameless
man that you are? Do you really think that everyone is as filthy as you?"
Rage took over Jack's disposition, as he was about to drag Emily out, but was soon met with resistance from Rita who stood in
front of Emily.
"Back off! This is our business. Otherwise, do not blame me for being impolite!" Jack shouted impatiently.
Rita snickered,"So what? What are you going to do about it?"
Rita never thought that Jack was the right man for Emily and the truth had finally proven her point.
Jack's face went red with suppressed rage.
Emily pulled Rita back and said in a low voice,"It's okay. I can handle this."

Although it was very unlike Emily, since she insisted on handling the matter by herself, Rita followed her decision and stepped
aside.
Besides, they were in a public area, Jack would not dare to raise his finger on Emily.
Emily pulled Rita back and then glared at Jack. You could feel the intensity in the air between them but neither of them uttered a
word. Soon, Rose's voice broke the silence and the hostile atmosphere.
"Emily? Rita... Why are you here?"
Rose was a little surprised but she asked, presumptuously,"Emily, are you the same as me... pregnant?"
Rose's words were only contributing to the problem as Jack was losing his mind,"Are you pregnant or not?"
Jack grabbed Emily's arm firmly and stared into her eyes, emphasizing every word with his teeth clenched.
Emily struggled, trying to get away from Jacob's hold, but she failed. Rita could not bear to witness this from the sidelines so she
stepped up to help Emily. Rose tried to help as well, but she was just making things worse.
Everything had fallen into chaos.
Emily had just managed to get rid of Jack when suddenly she fell down to the ground because Rose took the chance and tripped
her up.
The other people there at the clinic were dumbstruck.
"Rose, you sneaky bitch! Why did you trip up Emily on purpose?" Rita gave Rose a cold stare and then reached out to help
Emily get up.
Emily, however, slowly curled up on the ground, clutching her belly, and said, with a ghostly pale face,"My belly hurts so bad..."
Both Rita and Jack were surprised to hear that, but Rose was elated in mind.
"Emily, I did not trip you up. Please believe me. Emily, what happened?" asked Rose, as she pretended to be concerned and
aggrieved and continued,"Your face looks so pale. Could it be..."
But before Rose could finish, Jack wasted no time as he picked up Emily from the floor and carried her to the emergency room.

Rita looked at Rose with resentment and disgust as she said,"After such a long time, you are still as vile and shameless as
before."
As soon as she said that, Rita went to find Emily and Jack without looking back at Rose.
Rose's face turned purple with anger as she threw her bag to the ground.
On what grounds could Rita look down upon her?
Vile? Shameless? Was she as holy as the Goddess?
As for Emily...
Rose was disappointed and saddened by Jack's eagerness to help Emily.
In the emergency room, Emily struggled and fought Jack. She yelled at him,"Jack! Put me down!"
Jack ignored her with a straight face until the doctor asked him to put Emily down for an examination. However, he insisted that
he stay inside the emergency to watch over her.
Emily, on the hand, would die than let Jack stay inside with her as she yelled at him again,"Jack, get out here! If you do not go,
then I will not do the test!"
"Emily Bai! What the hell are you thinking? Do you want to die?"
"Whether I live or die is none of your concern! Get out of here right now!"
Frustrated, Jack yelled back at her,"Fine! Fine! Emily, have it your way!"
Jack turned round and walked out of the room. Angered, he punched the wall to vent his frustrations.
Damn it! Why should he care whether she lived or died!
However, instead of leaving, he waited outside the emergency room anxiously.
Soon, Rose came over to Jack and sat beside him with a worried expression on her face.

Rita was also waiting outside the emergency room. She stood across Jack and Rose, but she had no intentions of speaking with
them.
It had been quite a while, but Emily still had not come out. Feeling impatient, Jack couldn't wait anymore, so he barged into the
emergency room.
Both Emily and the doctor, a middle-aged woman, sitting across each other, were shocked and confused by Jack's unwelcome
appearance.
The doctor coughed slightly, and asked Jack,"You are the father of the baby, right? You got here right on time. Your wife had
suffered a temporary abdominal pain when she fell down, but you are lucky since there's nothing to worry about. But you've been
very careless too. The fetus is already more than three months old but you don't even know that..."
An awkward silence had enveloped the room, creating a depressive atmosphere. Jack's fae was livid with rage, like he had
found a piece of hair on his meal. The two women standing outside the door were also stupefied by the news.
Was Emily really pregnant?
As a matter of fact, Emily went completely nuts when she found out that she was pregnant just a few minutes ago. She had been
trying to let her thoughts sink in, before Jack broke in without permission.
"Doctor, how can I be pregnant? Quite recently, I was treated in a hospital, where I had to stay for a long time. None of the
examinations showed that I was pregnant!"
Moreover, even if she were pregnant, she should have lost the baby during the earthquake. After all, she had been stuck under
the debris for a long time without any supply.
"Maybe your body is a little different and the fetus was still very small at that time.... In any case, what's important now is that
you're pregnant. These are the silhouettes of your baby. Would you like to see it?"
Still in disbelief, Emily reached out to take the report, but Jack grabbed it from the doctor before she could.
"More than three months." Jack's face froze, he gave a frigid and distorted smile which made everyone in the room
uncomfortable.
Three months ago? Wasn't that around the same time when Emily broke up with Jack for the first time? At the time, he found
marks and blemishes on her skin...

Jack knew immediately that the baby's father was Jacob.
